LOVE CANCERT!

Dear Friends:

Greetings from the CANCER WARRIORS! We hope this email finds you in the best of health and good spirits.

Since the year 2000, our group - the Cancer Warriors Foundation, supports no less than one hundred indigent kids who are stricken with cancer. We assist them by providing the necessary medicines for their treatments especially for their chemo requirements.

The significant increase in the number of patients knocking on our doors and the increasing cost of medicines, is now forcing us to think of major ways to raise funds to be able to sustain all our programs. To date, almost Php 200,000 (two hundred thousand pesos) worth of medicines alone are bought and distributed every month. At this rate, our funds will be depleted even before the first quarter ends, not until we do something about it now.

Recently, we had the idea of having a concert that will coincide with the celebration of the WORLD CANCER DAY celebrated every February 4th and the INTERNATIONAL CHILDHOOD CANCER CONSCIOUSNESS DAY, celebrated every February 15th. This is to commemorate the patients, our loved ones, the warriors that we lost and to celebrate the lives that were spared by this disease.

In the past, we were able to successfully organize two concerts or "CANCERTS" which raised our funds and sustained our organization' s projects. This year, in coordination with the Cerrudo group, we will have our 3rd CANCERT (a post-Valentine concert for kids with cancer) aptly entitled "THE LOVE CANCERT" this coming February 16, at the Philam Life Theater at 8:00 pm. This will mainly feature Mr. Bimbo Cerrudo and The Manila Philharmonic Orchestra and other performing artists. Bimbo Cerrudo will render classical songs from his "Classico….Classic Ko" series.

In line with this, we would like to invite you to watch and ask your generous hearts to support this project for the sake of the kids.
